First project of 2022. Digital back for a 100 years old Kodak camera
I just recently came across this
Video by Greg Carrick (that Aussie photographer) about how to attach a
Fuji "digital back" to a hundred years old Kodak camera with bellows. I had exactly the same Fuji x-E1 camera and a very similar old Kodak so I figured, why not. Thank you for the
inspiration Greg. See the results bellow

Well, after a hundred year it might need a bit more cleaning

You definitely not going to get a super sharp result, but has a nice feel to it....or maybe I am nostalgic.
